Oh my Allah, obamas black? Oh yeah, he said he was didn't he?
Obama has never claimed to have used crack; did you actually read his book, or are you relying on second-hand accounts from someone else?

The only thing we know is Obama will raise our taxes and take away our 401k and Roth IRA's......
What are you talking about? The French gave him the "Star" treatment. Joe "The Traitor" Lieberman said the same thing a few months ago about Obama being tested. Stop listening to Rush!

Yes or no, did he not say he regularly used cocaine and alcohol? If he abused coke on a regular basis it's a STRONG possibility he also abused crack.

This was in a hearing on what the market has done to 401ks and suggestions for protecting them. Only a hearing. Do not panic.

He and his cult sure think he can, but Nobama couldn't even change a dollar.

The way I remember it from the book (and it has been a while) he explicitly mentions smoking pot, drinking, and a few instances of trying blow.

How that leads to a STRONG possibility of using crack is just ridiculous. Obama has been open and completely honest about his foolish experimenting in his youth - unlike George Bush and Bill Clinton who got squeamish when asked - and to assume without any sort of proof that he smokes crack (which you plainly said) is juvenile and vitriolic. When you makes assumptions like that you are pretty much spitting on rationality.

Unlike many here on the forum, I can't predict the future and my guess is only that, a guess. The world may be a grand place in four years or it may be little more than scorched earth.

I do know from looking back at our recent past that America went from having the admiration of almost the entire world, to the point where Arab nations signed on with us to fight against those who attacked us, even against their own brethren. Today, we are viewed with a far more contemptuous and skeptical eye and we have lost a fair amount of why other nations wanted to be like us, which was our benevolence.

Before placing this all on a single man we probably should give some closer examination of our policies which are just as if not more important than the man executing them.

I actually agree with much of what you just said......food for thought.
